We focus on their cafe, supermarket and in-house bakery sections to which they e added a sushi bar here (and I'm sure elsewhere). We bought groceries as we simply can't eat out all day every day after two months. And of course sweet treats. We visited the cafe twice mid afternoon for their tapas selection focussing on salmon with honey, red pepper stuffed with spider crab and sardines all of course sit on sliced baguette. Add a strong beer then a cafe con leche and it's a complete late lunch. It's service with a smile at the cafe bar (they have tables but at the bar you get the action of cooks grilling fillet steak and deep frying calamari from fresh. Fresh is key here so it's a tad more pricy than some places. The times we were there we were the only English speakers. If you don't know much Spanish and find tapas choices (pintxos here mostly) then this place is a good start to help you navigate. Lots for meat lovers too. The staff work incredibly hard but still manage service with a smile. The WiFi wasn't working both times we were there and there are restrooms convenient to the cafe.

They also have a parking garage underneath and bus stop and taxi lane right outside. Most of the stores in San Sebastian are specialty shops and you could easily spend a few hours walking between all of them just to get a complete change of clothes, and usually won't find everything you need. A little frustrating for us Americans accustomed to having everything under one roof. Arrco had everything I needed. The below ground level is a food store where you can get all your grocery shopping done and pick up any hygeine/cosmetic gear you require. They also have a decent selection of beer and liquor. The street and upper levels have clothing stores and spots to grab a quick drink, coffe, or light snack. I was able to buy a few outfits to replace the ones lost in my checked bag, soap, shampoo, etc., beer, as well as a backpack to tote it all back to the hotel in. Finally drinking cold beer and getting a shave! A very productive day!
